The moral high ground is traditionally where people are who can help to correct the actions of those who do not have the moral high ground. The golden rule, generally, is considered the highest moral ground.
You got #1 and #2 right, but you're way off on #3. I disprove #3 every day. Life isn't fair so long as those capable don't help those who are incapable. As soon as the capable start helping, life becomes more fair. It's very simple but it's something you, as a fellow 'capable', don't seem to get. Being capable to help is a responsibility. If you were shit poor and living on the street I'd help you. If I were shit poor and living on the street, I'd hope someone would help me. It's the golden rule. Do on to others as you would have them do onto you. I can't imagine a more simple, yet important rule.
You're confusing "taking care of with what is actually being said: "helping out". I don't think anyone is asking you to wipe their asses, but to allow your sympathy to guide your actions to help them in some way.
You aren't being asked to feel badly for succeeding. Far from it. It's a simple matter of sympathy and the golden rule. This is about doing the best thing and not just for yourself.

What do you feel when you see a homeless person? From your posts, it seems you don't respect them, and you feel they've earned that place in life. You've made that very clear. Why don't you see someone who may have never gotten the opportunity and despite their best effort have not succeeded? Is it so difficult to understand that not all poor people are responsible for their situation?

My attempts at humor go unnoticed. I'm well aware of Edwards' past. I wasn't sure what it had to do with the thread, so I attempted to diffuse the situation with a homosexual innuendo. Assuming Edwards has a y chromosome.
